Weird Activities and Awkward Encounters at home and abroad
In recent years it seems that Florida‘s reputation as spring break and retirement mecca has been overtaken by insane news stories. It’s cool to hate Florida. I moved here from Tennessee almost 9 years ago (yikes!) and in that time have heard things like, “I’m not much for sun and sand”, “I never left anything…
I have been attending the Food and Wine Festival for years now, but have never done any of their special events. This year I changed that and attended the Mexican Tequila Lunch at La Hacienda de San Angel. This is an informative and tasty lunch that takes place at noon every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday…
What better way to finish off a Halloween night than by revisiting some of my more bizarre travels? The following are 10 of the eeriest places I’ve visited. 1- Carnton Plantation, Franklin, TN The subject of my last post, a civil war era plantation that was used as a hospital during the battle of Franklin…
So, I had every intention of making my next post (this one) about my fabulous new Barclaycard Arrival Master Card that’s going to get me so many miles that I can fly anywhere in the world, whenever I want, but it turns out this card is somewhat inappropriately named since it may never actually arrive…
Now that I’ve eaten and drank my way through every stop at the Food and Wine Festival, I’ve compiled a list of my favorites. Mind you, I’ve enjoyed something from each booth, but have not tried everything. So, if one of your favorites is missing from the list below let me know! DRINKS! Best Red…
Well, it took 7 trips to the Food and Wine Festival this year, but I finally did it. I finally got all 30 of my stamps! Today was a short day with a mission. First stop Canada, Canada is one of the most popular stops. Luckily, I was able to stop by here on a…
That’s right, round 6. I’ve never actually kept track of how many visits it took me to get around the world before. Yikes! Granted, I’ve been going at a relatively leisurely pace, but this is nearly impossible for the average vacationer. I really thought I was going to be able to knock out all the…
What better way to start a day of indulgent eating and drinking that with a stop at Starbucks? This is actually my first time at the much anticipated Starbucks addition at Epcot. I know what you’re thinking. “Why do I need to go to Disney for Starbucks? I’m sure they’ve just found a way to…
So as you can tell from the title, I really covered some ground this 4th trip. My cousin, Connor, stopped by to visit from Tennessee. I always love when people come visit for Food and Wine. Usually, the more people you take with you, the more food and wine you get to try, but unfortunately,…
I made my 3rd attempt at Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival on a Sunday. I was a little trepidatious after being so miserable on Saturday, but I had friends in town and it’s still the food and wine festival so I didn’t take much convincing. Living in Orlando during the food and wine festival is…
